It's a cartoon-style "boxing" game where there is a ring, and three minute rounds, and boxing gloves on every character. And if that's about as much as you know about boxing, then this game will almost pull you in with its charm, but after about ten minutes you'll be just as disgusted as the rest of us."
The ultimate reason is both shocking and disgusting.
From the article:
"Real Steel is, believe it or not, one of the top 10 best selling games on XBox Live Arcade. Considering the prevalence of the DLC, and the number of people playing, it’s a safe bet that Real Steel has become a surprisingly steady source of income for Yukes."
So a company is continuing to update and support a popular title.

That can't be... How can a game endorsed by Snoop Dogg and Kimbo Slice flop?
Oh wait, it does sorta make sense now.
